Stew Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I think it's JDM performance that does the kit to sort it. Can't remember for sure though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool Hand Luke Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I thought you'd have got a years Lexus warranty with the car? How are you enjoying it anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAFC99 Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 The cars great apart from the clicking, i do have a el cheapo warranty from Lexus but not sure it will cover it. Its from AVPP (premier plus). Do u think this will cover it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Worth a try bud. Always worth a try. I'm sure you could get a hold of the TSB (I think it's on the site - possibly in the warranty section) and show them that it's a known issue etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndySpak Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 The insurance warranty I got with my car says the following about the "Drive System (Front/Rear)": Included: Crown wheel and pinion, half shafts, half shaft oil seals, bearings, planet gears, bevel gears, rear external drive shafts, constant velocity joints, 4 wheel drive units. Excluded: Beam axle and bearings, radius arm and bearings, rubber gaiters drive flange together with all other parts not listed In my experience, the policies are usually pretty similar between insurers but its worth you checking your fine print.

SAFC99 Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 Looks like my cheapo warranty will pay for replacment of rear drive shafts as long as its not wear and tear or should have been recalled. Its going in to evans halshaw on wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAFC99 Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 Just been to vic youngs to get clicking checked, when they phone warranty (el cheapo) they decided the rear drive shafts arent covered unless they fail fully. So Vic youngs have managed to get nissan to pay for all parts and all i have to do is pay the labour which is £98 good on Vic Youngs i say for not being robbing ba******!
